REPORT OF THE DREDGING EXPEDITION, 1901. 309 



good botanical outcome there was unusually close and varied vegeta- 

 tion for limestone ground below the breeding-places I managed to get 

 hold of a gyr-falcon. 



On July 21 we drove on to Indre Eide, where I wandered about in 

 the evening, though without reaping any particular botanical harvest. 

 On the other hand, I found the eggs of a couple of sea-birds of which 

 we had not yet found specimens. 



The following day we started back to the ship, arriving on board in 

 the evening, and therewith the dredging excursion was at an end. I 

 had plenty to do the following days in preserving the results, for if, on 

 account of the unfavourable weather and the disproportionately long- 

 time taken in rowing from place to place with the heavy boat, it was not 

 so great as might have been wished (a whole month had been spent on 

 this work), it was greater than that of the two previous years put 

 together. A quantity of material in the shape of land-growths, especially 

 mosses, had also been brought back. 



The zoological collections from the expedition probably contain 

 some things of interest, although they were not very large.
